OFF THE WIREEngines Society - A site for speed enthusiasts
And if your a prospective member its your name prospect your club and always make sure you take your gloves off and sunglasses
THESE ARE 10 RULES OF BIKER ETIQUETTE YOU WOULD ASSUME ARE COMMON SENSE, BUT YOU WOULD BE SURPRISED ON HOW MANY PEOPLE OVER LOOK THEM.
• Learn the proper way to introduce your self. Remember if your
wearing a patch on your back, your representing your entire club. Make
sure you do it right.
Club name – Road name – City of Origin

If your a prospective member it’s:
Club name – Prospect – Road name – City of Origin
• If it’s not YOUR bike in the parking lot, don’t sit on it or touch it.
• Keep your hands off another persons patch. That includes when your
greeting a fellow biker. If you absolutely have to touch their back.
Touch their shoulder area where you clear the patches. Remember these
people likely went through all kinds of hell earning those patches, so
show some respect. The only person allowed to touch them is the person
wearing them and the brothers they share patches with.
• Don’t interrupt a conversation amongst biker brothers. Unless your
invited into the conversation your not welcome. Mind your own business
and go about your way.
• Respect ol ladies. How would you feel if some one flirted with or
spoke rudely to your better half. This only leads to a bad path you do
not want to be at the end of.
• If you bump into a fellow biker do the respectful thing and admit
its your bad. If you ignore it and continue walking they have no choice
but to consider it a sign of disrespect.
• Don’t go starting fights in a bar. Why do you think the bars are
banning colors? I’m not saying let anyone disrespect you, but be smart
about it and don’t be the one picking fights. Your ruining it for
everyone.
• Don’t cut into the middle of a pack of riders for ANY REASON! If
merging from or onto the freeway, slow down, and fall in behind. Hauling
ass and passing another patched member is a sign of disrespect.
• Don’t pass anyone in their own lane, because now your really asking
for it. Not only is it illegal, they may “accidentally” stick out a
boot and send you off the road.
• If you don’t know the fellow biker riding in front of you, don’t
pull up beside them with out an invitation. They will automatically
assume you’re up to no good, and react.
